Pascal Nègre tops annual list of highest-paid business men

In 2022 it looked like the business man’s spectacular career was winding down. Suddenly, he was back on top. People With Money reports on Tuesday (April 15) that Nègre is the highest-paid business man in the world, pulling in an astonishing $82 million between March 2024 and March 2025, a nearly $50 million lead over his closest competition.

People With Money’s factors

In compiling this yearly list, the magazine considers factors such as upfront pay, profit participation, residuals, endorsements and advertising work.

The French business man has an estimated net worth of $245 million. He owes his fortune to smart stock investments, substantial property holdings, lucrative endorsement deals with CoverGirl cosmetics. He also owns several restaurants (the “Fat Nègre Burger” chain) in Paris, a Football Team (the “Saint-Germain-en-Laye Angels”), has launched his own brand of Vodka (Pure Wondernègre - France), and is tackling the juniors market with a top-selling perfume (With Love from Pascal) and a fashion line called “Pascal Nègre Seduction”.

The ranking is significant for many Pascal fans, who have been waiting for his triumphant return to the glory days for what seems like a lifetime.
